People weigh this much in different countries (You’ll be surprised to know India’s stats!)

After being constantly compared to men and women of other continents, we have often wondered why Indians have a particular body shape and size and why it differs from those in other nations. Our girls are often showcased as petite and small-framed as compared to girls in the west, where an average teenager’s body frame may be identical to an Indian woman’s. As per genetics and ancestral progression, here’s how much an average male and female weigh in various countries:

INDIA: Our motherland may be emerging as a developing country, but an average Indian does not weight this much anymore. Reason? Stressed lifestyle.

JAPAN: The creator of ninjas, Japan’s average individuals weigh almost equal to that of India. However, the frame is leaner.

USA: Guess now we know why the superpower’s men and women look drastically different from the Aryan race.

SOUTH KOREA: Though neighbours with Japan, people tend be heavier here.

CANADA: Unlike its neighbour the USA, Canada’s body stats are way lesser, even though day to day functioning is almost identical.

ENGLAND: Our old rulers outweigh us and our neighbouring nations as well. A typical British diet includes heavy carbs loaded with animal proteins.

AUSTRALIA: Australian sports teams are an evidence of this, be it men's or women's.
